I was given the car to use as a paddock basher by my cousin who had it sitting in his father in-laws paddock for a couple of years, didn't know much about them at the time so I grabbed it off him and towed it home.

Got it started easy enough but the clutch had seized and it had no brakes, so a new clutch/slave cylinder went in, fixed the brakes and all was good (all tho a little rough around the edges)

So I started searching the net for parts and info while the Datto was airing out (dead rat behind the dash) only to find out that it was becoming a sort after model among Skyline enthusiasts. 5spd manual, black unmolested interior, 2 doors, minimal rust.

Cheers Dan

It was a pretty good find, but finding parts for it is a pain in the @$$. I wouldn't mind a set of those round stove top tail lights but so pricey for what they are.

After I gave it a good once over and clean up i started fixing the small amount of rust with new steel, that's turned into a full respray. I'm organising a painter at the moment to finish it off for me.

Well I wired in a new stereo last night it's going in the glove box and the original is staying in, it's still hooked up and works through the front center mounted speaker.

I'm in the process of building a fiberglass box for the parcel tray, It'll either house a pair of 6" splits or 6x9's depending on the budget.

But who cares about that shit when there's a supercharger to play with

I'm going to run it pumping low boost through a reconditioned 310 Holley into the stock L24, still making the mount for the SC12 charger. I made a new idler pulley that replaces the old aircon idler and modified the aircon pulley to suit the charger.

Picked up a better manifold (E30) and made another (better) adapter for the Holley carby. Adapter and manifold are port matched/polished. Next will be a plenum style enclosure that bolts to the adapter plate, modify the carby linkage and relocate some of the polution gear
